A thoughtful close to an intense few days: Following Demo Day and the Central Asia Venture Conference, hosted a cultural programme and dinner that brought founders, VCs, business angels, and our wider community together in a more relaxed setting.
Conversations flowed more freely, new connections formed, and the cohort had the chance to engage with investors beyond the stage and the agenda. A generous gesture by UzVC and a meaningful way to round off the programme.

Not every startup will raise funding, but everyone leaves stronger!
The real value of a program like SGP 2.0 is the network you build. Over months of learning, pitching, and problem-solving together, founders get to know each other beyond ideas. They understand each other’s drive, mindset, and mission.
So, when one startup is growing and the founder needs a Head of Product or CTO, and another community member is ready for their next move if things haven’t worked out, they already know whom to call... That’s how ecosystems grow: through shared experience, trust, and collaboration.

Meet YaYa, one of the 16 startups selected for the Startup Growth Program 2.0, led by CEO Laura Yeraliyeva.
YaYa is an all-in-one app that helps parents find and manage the best activities, tutors, and learning centers for their kids, all in one simple subscription.
If you’ve ever wished parenting came with a “make life easier” button, this might be it. Between school runs, clubs, and online classes, most parents are juggling more than ever. YaYa helps cut through the chaos with smart AI that understands each child and suggests options that actually fit.
As Laura puts it, “Our North Star is to provide access to development for one million children within three years, while maintaining a $100 per child annual margin. We’re an experienced team that knows how to build and scale both B2C and B2B startups.”
Because every child’s path is different, and finding what works shouldn’t be a full-time job.
The Startup Growth Program 2.0 is back: connecting ambition with opportunity.
Presented by UzVC in collaboration with AKS Services, this year’s program brings together 16 high-potential startups from Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan for a four-month journey of learning, mentorship, and growth.
Guided by world-class mentors Asher Siddiqui, Marvin Liao, and Sharif El-Badawi, founders will gain practical insights into product-market fit, fundraising, and scaling, supported by a strong local and international network.
Together, we’re shaping the next generation of founders and building bridges between Silicon Valley and Central Asia. One idea, one founder, one milestone at a time.

С радостью объявляем что Национальный венчурный фонд UzVC в партнёрстве с управляющей компанией Sturgeon Capital профинансировал свой шестой стартап чеком на 100 000 долларов США в посевном раунде.
Финтех-стартап depozit.uz разрабатывает финтех-платформу — универсального супермаркета микрозаймов и других финансовых продуктов, а также финансовых консультационных услуг.
Depozit.uz выявил значительные возможности привлечения новых клиентов для банков. В настоящее время банки или платформы не могут предложить потенциальным клиентам возможность оценить их кредитоспособность всего за несколько кликов. Как только пользователи узнают о своей кредитоспособности, платформа depozit.uz немедленно покажет им, какой банк может одобрить эту сумму, что позволит получить кредит всего за пять минут. Данный процесс намного быстрее, чем нынешние методы, которые предполагают обращение к каждому банку в отдельности и может отнимать много времени и быть неэффективным. Таким образом, данный стартап упрощает процесс получения кредитов и других финансовых продуктов.
Ранее UzVC объявлял о старте приёма заявок от стартапов для совместного финансирования с управляющей компанией Sturgeon Capital и по сей день инвестировал такие стартапы как: TASS Vision, Sug’urta Bozor, zypl.ai., Modme и Pastoral.

UzVC Milliy venchur fondi Sturgeon Capital bilan hamkorlikda boshlang'ich bosqichdagi oltinchi startapini 100 000 AQSh dollari miqdorida moliyalashtirdi.
Fintech startapi depozit.uz fintech platformasi — mikrokreditlar va boshqa moliyaviy mahsulotlar uchun universal supermarket hamda moliyaviy maslahat xizmatlarini ishlab chiqadi.
Depozit.uz banklar uchun yangi mijozlarni jalb qilish uchun muhim imkoniyatlarni aniqladi. Hozirda banklar yoki platformalar potentsial mijozlarga bir necha marta bosish orqali ularning kredit qobiliyatini baholash imkoniyatini taklif qila olmaydi. Foydalanuvchilar o‘zlarining kredit layoqatliligidan xabardor bo‘lishi bilanoq, depozit.uz platformasi ularga bu miqdorni qaysi bank tasdiqlashi mumkinligini darhol ko‘rsatib, atigi besh daqiqada kredit olish imkonini beradi. Bu jarayon har bir bankka alohida borishni o‘z ichiga olgan amaldagi usullardan ancha tezroq bo‘lib, vaqt va samarasiz bo‘lishi mumkin. Shunday qilib, ushbu startap kreditlar va boshqa moliyaviy mahsulotlarni olish jarayonini soddalashtiradi.
Avvalroq UzVC Sturgeon Capital boshqaruv kompaniyasi bilan birgalikda moliyalashtirish uchun startaplardan arizalar qabul qilish boshlanganini e'lon qilgan va shu kungacha TASS Vision, Sug'urta Bozor, zypl.ai., Modme va Pastoral kabi startaplarga sarmoya kiritgan.

UzVC is thrilled to announce its latest investment in Depozit.uz.
Depozit.uz identified a significant opportunity in onboarding new clients for banks. Currently, no bank or platform offers potential clients the chance to understand their borrowing capacity in just a few clicks. Once users find out their borrowing capacity, the platform will immediately show them which bank could approve this amount, making it possible to obtain a loan in as little as five minutes. This process is much faster than the current method, which involves reaching out to each bank individually and can be a time-consuming and inefficient experience. Depozit.uz will match banks and clients and generate revenue in the process.
Earlier, UzVC announced the start of accepting applications from startups for co-financing with the management company Sturgeon Capital and to this day has invested in startups such as: TASS Vision, Sug'urta Bozor, zypl.ai, Modme_Uz and Pastoral.
